Panasonic ER-GN30 Wet & Dry Electric Facial Hair Ear and Nose Hair Trimmer for Men, Battery-Powered with 90 min operation, Black

I don't normally give anything the full 5 stars but it is fully deserved.Edit: Downgraded my rating to 4½ stars. The reason is added at the end of this review.I've tried a few different trimmers to control my enhanced follicle behaviour and subsequent wolf-like appearance. This thing works fantastically well. I am now able to keep my human form intact throughout a complete lunar cycle. Even during a full moon my lycanthrope appearance is kept in check and I can pass for a typical example of mankind. And to think it can do all of this at such a ridiculously low price. I use it for both nasal and ear hair. Also good for keeping my eyebrows looking neat. Does the job very speedily and without any pulling. It is so quiet too.No battery included, so I took the battery out of my old trimmer. Five minutes later my humanity was restored thanks to this wondrous lycanthropy camouflage tool. Thank you Panasonic!In short, this is probably the best thing I have ever bought through Amazon. You'd be howling mad not to buy one too!! Wholeheartedly recommended.Edited:Panasonic recommends replacing the blade every 3 years. So I thought I would see if I could get 1 or 2 spare blades in case they stop manufacturing them. However, the only place you can buy a replacement blade is from the Panasonic UK parts website (https://www.pas-europe.com/). The replacement blade block costs £11.02 plus £4.34 postage = £15.34. This means it is cheaper to just buy a new trimmer and realistically means the Panasonic suggestion to replace the blade is pretty meaningless. It may also imply that the expected lifetime of the product, if used regularly, is around 3 years. Still recommended though, as the trimmer is just so much better than any other similar product I have tried. (They are all complete garbage in comparison).

I bought this for trimming ear hair. I don't need to use it for nose, beard or eyebrow which this device can also be used for, so I can't comment on those uses.This is my first trimmer and didn't really know what to expect.Thankfully it's very easy to use in the ear and doesn't require too much brain power, but don't expect the 158 page manual to be any help either. It's not awkward to hold or manoeuvre. There is no hidden technique just get on with it.Results are good and surprisingly smooth. Better than the trimmer at my local hair dressers, that one always leaves my ears with a prickly feel. I just thought I had very thick ear hair.Seems easy to clean and you have 3 ways to do it, water wash, jet wash, or simply the cleaning brush.What's in the box? The trimmer itself with a protective cap, a cleaning brush, a 158 page manual (9 pages in English) coupled with a 76 page guarantee (1 page in English). Those both weigh more than the device itself.Finally the item description claims this to be a "Wet and Dry" trimmer. Nowhere on the box or in the manual does it mention that this can be used in the shower, with a wet face or with any creams etc... The model I received was ER-GN30-K (don't know where the 503 went). The mention of water is for cleaning. What's more annoying is the UK Panasonic website (at time of writing) has no information about this model. So I wouldn't buy this if you wanted to use it in the shower, I don't need to just for ear hair.Overall it's easy to use, easy to clean, good results and a very good price.

I've been using the Panasonic ER-GN30 Wet & Dry Electric Facial Hair Trimmer for a few months now, and it has become an essential part of my grooming routine. This trimmer is specifically designed for precise and comfortable trimming of nose and ear hair, and it performs exceptionally well.Design and Build Quality: The trimmer features a sleek and ergonomic design that fits comfortably in hand, allowing for easy maneuverability. The build quality is solid, and the device feels durable, which is reassuring for long-term use.Performance: Equipped with a dual-edge blade, the trimmer efficiently cuts hairs entering from both the sides and the top, making it ideal for trimming individual stray hairs and fine detailing. The curved, hypoallergenic stainless steel blades ensure a clean cut without causing irritation or discomfort.Ease of Use: The trimmer is lightweight and operates quietly, making the grooming experience pleasant. It's also waterproof, allowing for both wet and dry use, which adds to its versatility. Cleaning is straightforward, thanks to the Vortex Cleaning System that rinses out hairs without the need to remove the blade.Battery Life: Powered by a single AA battery, the trimmer offers up to 90 minutes of operation, which is quite impressive. I've found that the battery life is more than sufficient for regular use over several weeks.Pros:Efficient and precise trimmingComfortable and ergonomic designWet and dry use with easy cleaningLong battery lifeCons:None encountered so farOverall, the Panasonic ER-GN30 is a reliable and effective trimmer that makes grooming easy and comfortable. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality nose and ear hair trimmer.

Very good product does the job great

The product is good, when it's working. I actually have bought this item TWICE in a span of two years, and both times it just stopped working for no apparent reason. Supposedly this waterproof so no reason to be related with water. I use it very very rarely so in reality the 2 years is like 10x use. Really disappointed this keeps happening as it's quite efficient ...when working.

My second Panasonic trimmer. Works well. Easy to clean. Bucking the trend by being powered by an AA battery, as opposed to the majority of competitors using re-chargeable batteries. Rechargeable are ok but have found that the number of charging cycles they can take is woeful.

Very handy little device and easy to use at a fair price
